I guess the destruction of batteries vis-a-vis realism depends on the load out of the UH-60s and the type of arty. I think a UH-60 with competent door gunners could give a towed arty battery a hard time (speaking from experience at the JRTC). But your point is taken.

The "drum rolls" might have just been some momentary sound card artifacting of a machine gun. Sometimes, if a lot of firing is going on at once, you will get some distortion. The sounds were really compressed to fit download file size constraints back when the first iteration of the game was built ('98).
